Abstract

A binocular telescope includes a pair of Schmidt-Pechan roof prisms, one half pentaprism, a right-angle prism, a main circuit board, and an auxiliary circuit board. The half pentaprism is connected to a lateral surface of another half pentaprism, and includes a lateral surface substantially faces the other half pentaprism. The right-angle prism includes one lateral surface connected to the lateral surface of the half pentaprism, and another lateral surface whose normal is perpendicular to the normals of the lateral surfaces of both the half pentaprism and the another half pentaprism. A light emitter and a light receiver of the auxiliary circuit board are arranged above the another lateral surface of the right-angle prism and electrically connected with the main circuit board respectively. Therefore, the binocular telescope is arranged in a centralized manner, so that the complexity in production and maintenance is effectively reduced.
